Strike continues at NLC as talks fails

Workers continuing their strike for 13th day

Workers strike has entered day 13 at Neyveli Lignite Corporation (NLC), with the talks between the trade union representatives and labour department today being inconclusive.

Around 12,000 workers of the company are on indefinite strike from July 20, 2015 demanding higher wages.

More than 20 rounds of conciliation talks between the company management and the workers have failed so far, according to sources.

The next tri-partie meeting between the management, Labour Commissioner and Union is scheduled for Wednesday at Chennai.
